This apartment is great for anyone who is looking to see more than the expat neighborhoods. It is a $2 taxi ride or 40 minute walk from one of BKK Airport Link rail stations. That will connect you downtown or the airport. Google Maps walking directions from the station try to take you through gated communities but once you understand the route it can be walked. Check-in hours are stringent so this is probably better if you're going to spend a few nights there. The space is extremely peaceful on a quiet street. I've been to Bangkok a few times and this area felt more genuine than the areas I'd stayed in my previous visits.
